Would you take the money?

[Withano]

You're in the same position. You've heard the crowds mixed (at best) reaction to your personality and you feel like you've fairly been put into the room. You're now being offered 50,000 if you steal it from the winner and immediately leave with no chance of winning the whole 100k.
Would you take the money and run?

[Josy]

Yes

[In the Drunk Tank]

Initially I thought it was a bit of a no brainer but I dunno, seems a pretty lame way to go out after getting so far and with a place in the final guaranteed.. depends on my financial state I guess, 50k is obviously a lot of money but if I thought I could live without it then I wouldn't

[joeysteele]

At this stage of the series, yes definately.Probably even if I had got nothing but cheers from the crowd too on eviction nights,I still would.
With 9 housemates left,the final looming, I could walk off with 50k, 7 of the others left were going to leave with nothing and I had a chance to go with 50k with the knowledge I wasn't evicted by the public, dead right I would take it and go.

Even if you didn't need or want the money yourself, you could for sure help a good few people who did with 50k.

[Jordan.]

I'd take it.

You'd only be losing out on 10 days and you'll still get to attend the final anyway. Then it'd be straight off abroad with a nice chunk of money :pipe:

[smudgie]

Yes ,for sure.
They are all in it for the money, and I would be the same.

Not exactly a summer of fun like it used to be so why stay.:hugesmile:

[Suze]

Absolutely.

[cookiemonster]

like hell i would. a guaranteed £50,000, who'd turn that down?

[Jack_]

It'd be very hard for me, that's a lot of money but I'd love to do BB for the experience and that's the full one at that. I wouldn't care about winning but I'd want to be there from beginning to end so I think I'd probably want to stay.

[jyunga]

Why would you not take the money if you were Conor/LukeS. They've gotten boos, they know the public doesn't like them. They won't win and they know it. $50k and forgotten in 3 months versus $0k and forgotten in 3 months. Pretty simple conclusion.

[Lwize]

If I knew I had little or no chance of winning the game, I'd take the money and run.

[cell]

considering most of the people in there are despicable, I would take the money and run. For LukeS or Conner, I don't know if they would want the money or the possibility to win...

[lostalex]

absolutely no hesitation.

[vortex]

I dont think people would turn something like that down but it's really unfair anyway.

[The Human Santapede]

Yes.

[pcro]

If its a straight up 50,000 being offered, either would be crazy not to take it. It would be illogical not to. There are only 10 days left and the maximum prize money left would be 50,000 (assuming the other white room participant does take it.) Luke S. in particular has to take it since he heard the boos and was nearly evicted. Connor seems to think he has chance of winning.

It would also be the lamest twist in history if a flat 50k is offered up front. One hopes 50,000 is the maximum but they dont know how much bb is willing to offer and incremental offers are made to tempt them. Surely one would buzz out around the 10,000 mark if not sooner. If I recall on bb australia, which came up with the white room concept, the person buzzing out took a ridiculously low amount leaving a lot of money on the table.

[the truth]

if I was either of them 2 Id take the moola
But as I am rinky dink panther, no id stay in the show as victory would be inevitable

[Jords]

Absolutely.

[lostalex]

is that an admission that you have multiple accounts?

[Indy]

1 out of 1 chance at 50k or a 1 out of 5 to 7 (they don't know for sure) chance at 50k. You'd have to be really lousy at math to look at that and consider saying no a good idea.

[Shaun]

I did report him since it's quite obvious but nothing was done about it :bored:

[Indy]

I did report him since it's quite obvious but nothing was done about it :bored:

I'd just assumed it was common knowledge?

[WozMan]

Not to mention the fact that you have 10 days of good press coverage guaranteed whereas coming 3rd or 4th gets you swamped out by the winner and celeb BB.

Deffo take the money. Only drawback is you have to do a week of BOTS!!

[SharkAttack]

Would you take the money and run?

I'd pay 50K to get into the house for a week, so no. :joker:

[ozzyshaggah]

you would be stupid if you didn't take it

so my guess is conor wont take it - and he will kick himself for the rest of his worthless life - karma is a wonderful thing

[Sophiee]

it would be a difficult choice but I don't think I would. I'd want the full experience of it however if I didn't think there was much chance I'd win (judging by who topped the votes) then maybe I'd consider it more.

[Patricia4]

Take the money and run.

[kistar]

How funny! Exposed by his own admission.

[Big Brother Cartoons uk]

Yes I would take the money and much less besides. That is one hellish house and I'd be glad to be out of it.

[Cherry Christmas]

take the money...u will go down in bb history as a one off as well ie the manner you won it.

[Marmalite]

You'd have to be pretty stupid not to take it and have first dibs on all the mag deals and be centre of attention for 10 days when you're only other alternative is to have a 1/5 (or 1/7) chance of getting the other £50,000 up for grabs and to leave on the same night as the other contestants.

[Munchkins]

Yes, i would take the money and RUN

[HBB1508]

Hell yeah half the prize money guaranteed - that's a no brainer

[Livia]

There isn't enough money in the world that would entice me into the house in the first place, so I really can't answer. Interesting to see the points of view on this thread, though.

[Gillian-73]

Yes i'd take it. No doubt in my mind!

[Gillian-73]

if I was either of them 2 Id take the moola
But as I am rinky dink panther, no id stay in the show as victory would be inevitable

Ooops!

[Beastie]

Yes I would take it. Unless I was so sure of myself that I would win. But probably just take it.

[Black Dagger]

Of course I'd take it...

Especially if I was in Luke S' position knowing I couldn't win anyway.

I'd expect a load of hate on Twitter for it when I got out, but meh, I'd have 50k in my grasp.

[Marc]

Of course, after so many weeks I'd probably want to leave anyway. So this would be a great opportunity to just f off with a decent amount of money!

[Bojangles]

A bird in the hand springs to mind.

[smeagol]

hmm 50k to walk or risk 50k to stay and try win 50k after a week LOL who thinks of this crap.
100% take it and run only a braindead zombie wouldn't.

sit in your hotel with some slappers drink champagne and have aweek on bbots happy days. and laugh at the poor sucker who wins who is getting the same for a week of etra bitchin

[EzzaB]

If I was in that room with that moron conor then i wouldn't take it. I couldn't bare the thought of losing to him.
